OT: Anyone ever been to the Delta Airlines...

[DAWGS1.sixpack]

museum in Atlanta close to the airport.
It’s currently closed now due to the China virus but I’d expect it to open back up to some degree this summer. If any have, anyone do the 737 flight simulator?
Think it’s $450.00 for about a total time of hour an a half. I think this would be cool as hell to do but the $450 seems a little steep.

You can also blow some money at the Porsche place by the airport as well.

I think everyone should own a Porsche once in their life. A friend just traded in for a Taycan. It's sweet, love the interior. But, I think Id still take a Model S over it. Especially since the price point as the Plaid.

I drove my friend’s once. It was a lot of fun, but I don’t know he did it as a daily driver. It was not comfortable.

I have not been to the delta museum, but if you are a plane fanatic, you’ll love the simulator. $450 for 1.5 hours doesn’t seem unreasonable for a flight simulator.

i did the flight sim on the Midway in San Diego about 5 years ago. was $50 for me and my wife together, which i thought was way too expensive at the time. one flies, one shoots. lasted about 15 min. but they strap you in to a fighter plane and it was totally worth it. flying was more fun. can go upside down. loops and all feel real. the wife was not a fan when i made us fly upside down for about 30 seconds. had to roll it back over. but man, it was totally worth $50. now, $450 is crazy unless you get the pilot/flight attendant privilege's......

Toured the Midway back in August of ‘19 but did not see anything about a flight simulator.
Had I, I would have spent the $50.00.

They may have taken it out, but i can’t imagine that. Was always a line to it. Was under the deck if i remember correctly.

I attended an event at the museum years ago and it was intriguing.
When I was working on a project at Delta years ago (in my consulting days), I worked with a couple of guys who just took me out there to fly the simulator for fun for a couple of hours. It's easy to fly! Landing, on the other hand...

Sounds cool, but you can swim with the whale sharks at the aquarium for less. It’s pretty awesome if you’re into that.

Just go to the Jackson International airport and fly the C-17 sim...

Porsche is just an expensive VW.... Been to the Porsche plant in Stuttgart and saw nothing but blonde haired guys with blue eyes.. Hitler would have been proud...
